Question:
Dear respected Shaikhs,
Assalam u Alaiykum.
I am encountering many obstacles in my life including marital problems and I also suffer from depression. I have been advised that it is because of my name. Is this true?
My name is [private] and I would like to request Maulana Shaikh Nazim to suggest a more suitable name. Should I be required to change it?
Please advise either way. JazakkAllah Khaiyr in advance for your support.

Alaykum Salam,
Mawlana said you may use Naeem Akbar. This refers to blessings of Paradise both in dunya and akhira for you in sha Allah.
